Thought i’d shared some news i’ve been following over at FT. For those for have passed through MAD T4 in the past year you would’ve noticed the renos. A new OWE IB lounge is due to be open in T4 next to the Dalí lounge, which will be great as the food options are pretty sad over there. Apparently in addition to better food and drinks they’ll be a jamón slicing station 😋

Sadly i’ll miss the opening as the opening has been pushed back to June ‘26 and my planned flight for this lounge is May 😪

The floor plan is quite small for ~150 and for Schengen flights (there are reports you can try your luck here before a non-Schengen flight over at T4S), but may be risky with the new EES system, it’s somewhat of a schlep over and the Valásquez lounge there is passable (shame the dining room doesn’t open earlier for the north america day flights, it only opens apparently for the evening south america flights)

 
Sounds likes it’s only Domestic / Schengen zone flights.

Something over at T4S for non-Schengen would be well over due. The lounges there are better but still nothing for OWE…

We’re flying out in September. Maybe something then!
